The Sun Java System Calendar Server is Sun's calendar (scheduling) server.

History and use

Sun's Java System Calendar Server has a long history, drawing technology from Sun Internet Calendar Server (SICS) and Netscape Calendar Server (NCS). The software undergone several name changes; in addition to the above, it has also been marketed as iPlanet Calendar Server and Sun ONE Calendar Server. The code base has been carried on throughout these name changes with only feature/packaging enhancements and bug fixes.

Since 2003, the Calendar Server has been included as part of Sun's Java Enterprise System, a collection of infrastructure software applications and tools. It is also available as part of the Sun Java Communications Suite, a smaller collection of messaging and collaboration services that includes Sun Java System Messaging Server, Sun Java Instant Messaging Server, and Sun Java Communications Express. Supporting server software for the Calendar Server includes Sun Java Directory Server, Sun Java Access Manager, and Sun Java Web Server. The supporting software is included in the Communications Suite bundle with limited-use licence rights.

The Calendar Server is supported on multiple operating systems including Sun's Solaris, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, HP-UX, and Microsoft Windows.
